It's official.  Harry Palmer who is his right hand man says it's true.

Now draft a bruiser in the backfield to complement Mixon!!!!

Just spoke with La'el Collins who told me the first thing he said to Joe Burrow: "Your new bodyguard is in town, no one's touching you."

Unfortunately for Spain and Hopkins and Adeniji and Prince, highlight film would last an hour each of them getting beat all season, one play after another ending with Burrow smothered by 320 lbs of beef.

They all had to go.

While Prince was not an All-Pro by any means the complete weakness at RG made him look far worse than he was. C was awful I hate to break it to you. According to PFF grading only one center graded out lower than Hopkins and that was Kendrick Green from Pittsburgh. Carmen did not play great football but he looked better at LG than at RG and he is a rookie that did not play OG in college rather played LT.

It's funny those people don't even post in the Gameday thread, but they are holier than thou while reading it. I like how lack of emotion people have for the Bengals when they're in the middle of the game.

Bengals trade #31 to Jacksonville

Jaguars trade #33(2) and 106(4)

-Jaguars secure Their guy , while we have multiple guys were interested in and get an extra pick to boot, giving us #33, #63, #95, #106, #136 in first 4 rounds!!

I agree it opens up draft for team wanting a 4+ year contract to come into round 1. It could be for a QB, CB or OL. If J. Williams the WR from Alabama is sitting there at #31, I would have to take him. He will be a stud and give Burrow one more weapon and help if Higgins wants too much soon.

Uh, you spelled Ja’Marr’s last name wrong - it’s C-H-A-S-E not LC…

But I get what you are saying. OLine is looking solid now

[Nicomo Cosca]

That bodyguard comment is reminiscent of Whit’s 2 contracts comment. Love it!

Good talk to the players who have been here the last couple years. See what they say. This really gets underneath my skin

Things have changed at some point. When Joseph left, he bashed the org too. Palmer would rather retire than play here.

That's like 20 years of narrative. It's hard to change that over night.

The Playoff wins and SB appearance help. A SB win would have eradicated it.

Ancient history. It’s been a night and day difference since Taylor arrived.

Nahhh Spain is solid. The other 3 guys stink

No team has 1st team all pros waiting in the wings for an injury.

Prince, Adeniji, and Carman...I don't know if 2 of those guys are even backup nfl caliber.

I'd see if Reiff would take like $4 million a year as a backup. Both Jonah and Collins miss a lot of games.

[Science Friction]

One thing I really like about this Collins grab, besides the obvious, is that our gain is Dallas' loss. God, I hate those sum beaches !!!

[*pally*]

It is official now. Maybe he was at Kenwood buying that suit

LET'S GOOOOO! LA'EL COLLINS IS A BENGAL!

We've signed free agent OT La’el Collins to a three-year contract that lasts through the 2024 season. pic.twitter.com/yCMcEyKZsO
